Electro-Polish Quality (EPQ) Wire, also known as Forming Wire, is wire that has undergone a specialized electro-polishing process to achieve a high level of surface smoothness, cleanliness and uniformity.
Electro-Polish Quality (EPQ) wire, also known as forming wire, is wire that has undergone a specialized electro-polishing process to achieve a high level of surface smoothness, cleanliness and uniformity. It’s commonly used in the medical, aerospace, electronics and automotive industries because cleanliness and corrosion resistance are crucial for success. The most popular alloy for EQP wire is 316 stainless steel.
At Sunset Wire, we turn the wire into its desired form before it goes into an electrolytic bath. The electrochemical reaction strips the surface material, leaving wire that’s highly polished. EPQ wire is often used for making baskets, wire whisks, potato mashers and other kinds of food utensils.
Sunset Wire is proud to supply various forming wire alloys and meet all specifications.
